gee i sure wish that you would've moderated your own forums like that all those years ago, cloven. your community and i would've had much fewer problems.

i'll repeat though: can i save delteria?

[rhetoric]
Why are you reliving "all those years ago" everywhere I see you post? How do you believe that sort of attitude is conducive to the desired 'stable environment' we are seeking?
[/rhetoric]

Did you mean "what can I do to save Delteria?" Otherwise, I'm not sure this question is even answerable. :oo:

I'm still willing to do ganis for you guys when I have free time, I don't know why I stopped to begin with.

We are waiting to get a backup of our dev server (it expired for now) uploaded onto the main server. I did send emails about it but I have not received a response for some reason.

You're welcome to come back when I receive that, though.

[rhetoric]
i actually prefer the phrase "visiting" instead of reliving, because i don't spend all day on here. if you'd notice, the times in which i decide to are a lot more rare than they had once been.
[/rhetoric]

Yeah, I'm willing to lend a hand on small ganis too cloven. Just give me a forum pm.

Has it really been 10 years? That's crazy man... That means I've known you longer than most of my friends IRL...

You guys are so cute

I love you more than they love each other.

Yeah pretty weird, huh? We'll still have to hang out one of these days... especially since I live 1,000 miles closer than I used to, lol.

rofl

I'm also willing to do what I can. Even if it's just using [rhetoric] tags. [/rhetoric]

I'm pretty sure Cloven has received the backup now, fyi guys. ^^

They're up as far as I know. I sadly wasn't on when Stefan made his long-awaited appearance.

So delt is back in progress to be finished? :O

It's capable of being developed in some unspecified point in the future, and be released on a later, also unknown, date.. To be completely fair, nothing has changed.

It will be complete in 2012. That has more chance of happening than the apocalypse.

Bump for justice!

That stuff looks awesome!

Thank you very much.

Also, if you're at all interested in helping feel free to send me a forum PM or contact me via AIM.

Still a moderately long road ahead, though we're certainly not lacking in things to work on, as you can see.

Speaking of things to be done. What does need to be done at this moment Cloven?

Now that we have access to the server again, we're going through everything and making a to-do list.

So I guess we'll get back to this question.

Thanks a lot riot.

Yea, thanks for the update.

Yeah either Riot or I will post the public to-do list after we've gotten our facts straight. So I suppose everyone can expect such a post within a few days or so. :)

ah snap hope youre not in trouble again cloven!

lol flamours u dnt remember ? we seen it alot i know quest needed to be made i was working on mu cave quest when my computer die one day i hope to come back to finish it. cloven is sandz gone still? i know major of the outside levels are done

Okay, so some more important things I'll make immediate mention of:


Scripting-Related:

• Mount System. (We have the necessary ganis complete)
• Chat system could use a rescript. (We have a full spritesheet for this completed)
• Party System.
• Duel System rescript. (Allows players to create custom, private spar-duels at will)
• Quests/ Quest System. (A variety of work is needed. Selected candidates must have considerable scripting skill, specifically with quests and baddies)
• Quest Log rescript. (Prototype available for ease of redo)
• Options menu additions.
• Shop System. (Due to some sensitive knowledge, details will be given only to those selected to work)
• Mining System rescript. (Pretty sure all necessary gfx and ganis complete. Some prototypes available. Work includes pickaxe, mining kart, lighted helmet)
• Combat System. (Due to some sensitive knowledge, details will be given only to those selected to work)
• Events. (A small variety of event-work is needed, mostly dealing with Contra and Zombie Outbreak. Event devs are -always- welcome though, because I'm a sucker for good events)
• Local Guild System. (We have not decided to disallow global guilds, though creating a local guild will eventually come with some unique perks :D)

Levels-Related:

• Kaljun Port. (This was the town released in summer-2007's failed-Beta, only with changes. Some work still remains in order to prepare it for release)
• Kaljun Island. (This is the gmap island that the Port Town exits to. It's 12x12 and needs work mainly just on the eastern portion of the island)
• Quests. (Quest 1 levels are complete. Quests 2 levels are over 95%. Quest 3 will be created by a skilled LAT using our special MHX-themed tiles. Mound Quest [we have a baddy that literally grows out of the grass tiles and swallows you :D] levels need redone or at least worked on more. Buggalo Boss Quest needs a set of levels leading up to the Boss)

GFX/GANI-Related:

• Work will consist largely of dealing with things mentioned in the Levels and Scripting needs sections.

This isn't necessarily the be-all-end-all to-do list, but in my opinion it's the more important things that we've agreed on as of late. Other work may be included, and, suggestions and discussion with Riot and myself are always welcome to quality staff members.

On a related note, it may be possible for a desired volunteer to earn a permanent administrative position in one of our departments. Nevertheless any help completing even one of these items is very much appreciated.

If interested you may forum PM me or add me to your AIM (Cloven DC). Best bet is to send me a forum PM. You can also send a forum PM to Riot, though unless he says otherwise it's probably best to contact me. Also feel free to chat with me if you see me in-game. Sometimes I'll be on UN. Thank you again, to all interested and any who apply.

Man... That's not as bad as I thought. That could be done within a month and a half even at slow pace. Guys you need to help out delt and make it come to life!

Wow, pretty cool. :oo:

Thanks.

*Bump for community awareness.

I just visited the server and I've to say there is a lot of amazing work done lately. Keep it up ;D

Heh, thanks. Can't show everyone else that stuff yet though. :p

cheatzor :<

Can't wait ! :)

Please guys Save delteria I wanna see it come back!

Good to see you guys still making progress. It looks like you're making your way towards completion a little quicker than when I last checked which is odd considering you lost so much help during that down-time while waiting for the backup. I kinda wish I had some free time to help out, but at the same time I'm glad I don't because I always wind up being pretty counter-productive when I get involved with Delteria.

Ignore the naysayers and people making stupid comments about how ridiculously long it's taking, you aren't getting payed and any work you do complete they should be grateful for. I'm confident one day you'll finish and get the respect you deserve for dedicating so much time to the project even after suffering so much ridicule from people like myself who like to sometimes point fingers out of pure frustration without thinking about the true facts that you really don't have to be doing anything.

Anyway good luck, and remember to just work at your own pace and have fun doing it so you don't burn yourself out. :D Really looking forward for the final release, whenever it may come. I'll come back for a few months to explore all the new content when you do, make sure to let me know on AIM, I seem to be checking even the Delteria forums less frequently nowadays.

Yeah there have been a few changes made and some that are in the works to streamline the process. Will discuss it more as things get completed.

I loved what you showed me, Cloven. I don't have enough free time or any sort of skill to help, but I'm definitely looking forward to more updates.

How's the project going along? Like what's needed to be done around development wise? I'm still excited for this to come out.

Same here, I think it will attract the attention of new players as well.
